AndyT Posted August 3, 2016 Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 North American Trials Championship. Some heavy hitters in here. I drove over 3,200 kilometers to attend this event and was the only person with an actual bike with a seat in my class. This is was all on my phone and was my experience of the 2 day competition. I edited it last night when I was in a tent. It was a loong drive.. Enjoy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not enough super watered down 24" spins? It's all what I saw and my phone saw the 3 days I was there. The footage mixed in was what I watched to get pumped for the trials event, as I have a hard time watching pogo sticks "ride". Note all the shredding footage of Fontenoy. 0 interest in what trials has become in the competition level, completely unwatchable to me. I felt by sneaking in real riding footage American people who love the bullshit trials has become actually see some real riding for once and maybe some of the pogo puffs will realize what a joke the sport has become... And how it shouldn't be called "bike"trials as there is no bike involved any more. Long live sticktrials. where would you be if you drive 3,200km from London ?

Mark W Posted August 3, 2016 Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 It shows what happened in the rest of the comp, and what happened to him/his friends? I liked how it wasn't a normal super slow mo/dubstep comp review type video. There were some funny bits in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chimpanzyyyy Posted August 3, 2016 Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 that was so random please make more! in all fearness to Aurelien, he is one of the coolest comp rider to watch. It's just a shame, that, as u said, most comps are pretty much who has the biggest side hops(not all the time but a lot though) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dman Posted August 3, 2016 Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 Now you've explained it I understand but it's not what the title says, I'm happy it's not comp footage by the way, not my thing. Not just Brit's I'm sure most people didn't get what they expected when clicking play. Watered down 24 spins, haha, that the best you can come up with, typical American, someone has an opinion about something you get really upset and try and put them down in some way. 1988.388 miles from home. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever bro, bet I can eat more McDonald's than you ever can. I bet American McDonalds is way better than the stuff you guys get too... Stronger beef, trump makes the burgers special. Edit.. Basically London to turkey and back for one comp. because it's the only comp America has a year. And here is a video from the ride you might find more interesting.

Yeah but you don't really get a lot with this forum, probably the language/humour barrier. Loved the vid, shame the Trials scene in the US seems to be dying Not sure if you were intentionally fulfilling the stereotype that most Americans know feck all about the world outside there own country with the Turje/turkey gaff or actually a genuine mistake...

Only 100% better than McDonald's, but who wants freshly made fast food, hand prepared in front of you, using real ingredients, not frozen. To be honest I've been to fancy places with really expensive hamburgers and imo they were shit. I don't like those big fat uncooked burgers that are all the rage and take forever to make. Five guys burger and fries are the best fast food burger you can get imo. For some reason the burgers at the trafford centre are miles better than the one at Ashton, maybe you got a shit one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
